A highly attractive Sterling Silver Pendant, with a design based on the romantic and tragic life of Mary Queen of Scots.
Mary spent her formative years at the French Court, then the richest and most opulent in the western world. She was betrothed to the Dauphine (Crown Prince) of France, Francis, and married him, aged only 15, in a glittering ceremony in Notre Dame Cathedral. She is described as… ‘a hundred times more beautiful than a goddess of heaven …her person alone was worth a kingdom". The following year, aged 16, Mary's husband ascends the throne of France and Mary becomes Queen of France (as well as Queen of Scotland).
The design of this stunning pendant features the Scottish Crown, which utilises the Fleur De Lis, the emblem particularly associated with the French monarchy, surmounted with a Cross.
This beautiful pendant will delight lovers of all things Scottish, and the romantic and tragic tale that was Mary Queen of Scots, and will make an ideal gift and a lasting momento for yourself or someone you love.
Crafted entirely of 925 sterling silver, it is despatched to you complete with a 16" sterling silver chain extendable to 18", in an attractive black and gold gift box.
Mary Queen of Scots is, arguably, Scotland's most famous monarch. Her short, tempestuous life encompassed more drama, romance and tragedy than even a modern day romantic novelist could envisage.
A tall, strikingly beautiful woman, by the age of only seventeen she had already been Queen of Scotland, engaged to the Crown Prince of England, married to the King of France (then one of the wealthiest countries on earth) orphaned and widowed!
Size (approx) - 22.0mm x 15.0mm.
